Palatability is only part of the story. Yes, some of the foods that I used to consider palatable were also trigger foods for me. Steak, lobster were no problem because I could eat them and be satiated for a longer period of time than some of the palatable sugared carbs that I would eat for dessert or snacks. They were the insidious foods that I ate because I never became satiated, and worse, within a couple hours after consumption, my low blood sugar caused me to be crave food again. Yeah, they were palatable, but they also set off a hormonal chain of events that triggered over eating. So, I still consider steak, lobster, and other full fat meals palatable, but they are the food types that enable me to be successful with a LCHF approach. The other stuff was simply feeding my sugar/carb addiction in an unending cycle leading to poor health.
